Advance Notice - Staffordshire Branch of CPRE together with the Staffordshire Parish Councils Association are planning a number of events to inform people about the new planning regulations. These events will be funded from a contract signed between DCLG and CPRE nationally.

It is intended to holdthree events for the general public in Leek, Stafford and Codsall, before Christmas, on dates and venues to be decided. There may be additional events depending on the level of interest. The event will be an hour long presentation, repeated three times during the day, with an opportunity to ask questions. Preferably attendees will be pre-booked but casual attendees will also be welcome. A further in-depth event is planned for the New Year and this will be a day long seminar for local councillors and those of the general public who want more technical information on the subject.

Details will be sent to members of both organisations and adverts will be placed in the local press.
